Staff Reporter:A Dhaka court on Tuesday asked BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia to appear before it on April 10 in connection with 11 cases filed, including the sedition one filed for her comments about the number of martyrs during the 1971 Liberation War.
Judge Kamrul Hossain Mollah of the Metropolitan Sessions Judge's Court passed the order after hearing a time petition filed by Khaleda�s lawyer Sanaullah Mia, reports UNB.
Khaleda Zia avoided the trial proceedings of the 11 cases on Tuesday due to her health problem, said her counsel.
